Campaign themes

2012

Excerpt: "We must move forward with Vermont’s plans to reform our broken health care system regardless of what the federal government does."

Housing and transportation

Excerpt: "These are closely linked, and either make our towns and cities livable when they’re well planned, or create havoc when they’re poorly planned. For our individuals and families, for the good of the environment, and for the development and recruitment of businesses that bring jobs, we must be smart about our communities’ housing and transportation."

Supportive communities

Excerpt: "The character of our towns and cities should be judged by how well we care for and create opportunities for all of our residents. We need to have quality, affordable child care, elder care, education, and resources for survivors of sexual violence and domestic abuse. "
